Wholistic Colostrum represents nature's complete nutritional package. Colostrum is fondly known as "Mother's First Milk" because it is the very first nourishing food that the newborn receives before the production of "milk". Colostrum is loaded with all the nutrients necessary to sustain life and, furthermore, contains the all-essential Mother's antibodies that help protect the helpless newborn from the environment's assault. Without Mother's antibodies to protect the newborn from bacteria, viruses, illness and disease, the newborn would quickly succumb. Wholistic Colostrum is an extremely concentrated powdered form of bovine colostrum offering 5000 mg of pure colostrum per teaspoon, collected from strictly controlled US origin dairy herds that are fed diets free of meat by-products, hormones, antibiotics and pesticides, and processed in UDSA licensed & inspected human food processing plants. For purity, efficacy, and guaranteed quality, Wholistic Colostrum is the first choice in providing your pet with passive immunity (immunoglobulins IgA, IgM, IgG, lactoferrin) during times of stress, illness, and/or periods of recovery or for general immune function support.
